Phoenix Fall Color

If I were planning to enter the contest, I would consider this one

Can't decide if I should enter the Autumn tree smackdown contest or not. Oh, the pressure. We don't get many leaves changing color, preferring ours to be evergreen else pointy and/or spiny, and our Autumn is more like summer in other places. But it is November, these are trees, there was color, so perhaps this would work. Or, it can just stand for itself, uncompetitive. If you stand at your computer right now and applaud, our OSG applause meters will register your approval, and I'll enter it. Otherwise, it will just remain a fine capture of some crazy sunset colors.

this morning i rode through what the weather channel calls "ice fog". the temp - minus one celsius. the trees are fifty per cent naked. colours are muted - especially through my sunglasses (aint' takin' them off 'till christmas!) i look at your trees and see colour and well . . .trees and i say enter damn it and win!!! steven

Let's Just Ride

I commute by bicycle in Phoenix, Arizona, a metropolis suited to riding bicycles of all types, with weather, mountains, roads, canals, and paths to keep me forever spinning. My favorite bike tools are an open mind, creative engagement, curiosity, compassion, common ground, and the search for knowledge.
